ALBION – Orleans County is closing county government operations on Friday, except for the Sheriff’s Office, Highway and Buildings and Grounds.

“Due to the bitter cold and wind-chill factors varying from -20 to -30 below zero, the Chair has authorized me to close the county operations and all non-essential personnel should not report Friday,” said Chuck Nesbitt, the county’s chief administrative officer.

Lynne Johnson, chairwoman of the Legislature, made the authorization to close the county buildings with all non-clerical Sheriff’s, Highway, and Building and Grounds staff to report as usual.
